What is the approach to cybersecurity in the maritime sector? Is there enough awareness to make the right decisions?

Meet Cynthia A. Hudson, CEO HudsonAnalytix, who I sat down with whilst at Podcast Movement in Philadelphia, USA last Summer. She underlines the importance of looking upon risk management more holistic and to gain knowledge about the various threats from cyberspace that the shipping company or ship management company faces. 

Internet of things, it’s the internet of the sea now. Machine to machine communication, satellite connection, data science – this is all relatively new vocabulary to the maritime community, but still, we all need to understand what risks the balance sheet might open up to.

Cybersecurity is another of the buzzwords right now. It was a pleasure to sit down with Cynthia and listen to her expertise in the area. What is your reaction to what she is telling? Please let me know, I am @lenagothberg in all social channels, or if you prefer to comment below, please give us your opinion.

Thank you for listening, you go and tell everyone that you meet about this 😉
